The Rheem Hiline SS Heater heats water using the power of the sun. Rheem built this system for temperate and tropical Australian homes. Specifically, it works best in areas with very little frost. This 52L Series system warms water directly inside the solar collectors. It then moves the hot water back into the storage tank. This process runs smoothly in the sun and lowers your power bills.
